Siobhan began her training in Tapestry’s multi-form youth training academy in ballet, rhythm tap, jazz and modern.  During high school she auditioned for Visions and Rhythm, Tapestry’s pre-professional youth company, under the direction of Tasha Lawson.  While attending St. Stephen’s Episcopal School, she was a member of Chrysalis Dance Company under the direction of Deirdre Strand, her mother. After graduating high school, Siobhan received a scholarship to the Muhlenberg College Dance Department.  While there, she realized that rhythm tap was her true passion so she returned to Austin and was an apprentice with the professional company.  Since then, she has been a full time professional dancer under the artistic direction of her mentor, Acia Gray.  Siobhan has studied with Dianne Walker, Nicholas Young, Michelle Dorrance, Brenda Buffalino, Dormeshia Sumbry- Edwards, Dr.Fayard Nicholas, Dr. Arthur Duncan, and Dr. Jeni Legon. Siobhan has appeared in premier works by TDC such as Ears Wide Open, April Fools, and Time.  She was a part of the NEA American Masterpiece production of Acia Gray's The Souls of Our Feet 2:  A Celebration of American Tap that toured the United States, Canada and China.  She was the leading female in Matt Shield’s Chronological Life Story of a Few Tap Dancers, premiering at Vancouver International Tap Festival. She was Arthur Duncan’s demonstrator at the Montreal Tap Dance Festival in 2013 under the direction of Tanya Rivard.  She also teaches at St. Stephen’s Episcopal School and Zachary Scott Theater and is the Artistic Director of Visions In Rhythm.
